18/11/2021 – HR/VP Blog – On 15 November, I presented the Strategic Compass to EU Ministers of Foreign Affairs and Defence. The initial exchanges showed widespread support for its central diagnosis – namely that Europe is in danger – and for the range of proposals on how to strengthen the EU’s role as a security provider. In the coming months, we will continue working with member states to agree the precise way forward. I will keep pushing for an ambitious and realistic approach, as our citizens expect. |
